Chapter 777: A man with iron bones

The news of the crushing defeat of the French army in the Old Summer Palace was quickly learned by the British ** team, and the British commander Clinton laughed at the French army at the same time, but also led 18,000 British troops to join the French army, and the number of British and French troops reached 25,000 people, and Clinton unceremoniously grasped the command of the coalition army. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, it was already 8 p.m. on the 6th of the month.

When Clinton saw that it was already dark, he ordered the combined forces of the two countries to gather three miles away from the Old Summer Palace and wait until dawn tomorrow to attack the Old Summer Palace again.

After Emperor Xianfeng heard that the British and French forces had suffered heavy losses and were blocked in the Old Summer Palace, he was greatly excited, and immediately summoned the monk Lingqin who had fled into the capital overnight, and asked which army was retreating to the Old Summer Palace?

Monk Greenqin was sweating profusely, and even the main force of the Qing army led by him had fled into the city, and he really couldn't think of any other army that could inflict heavy losses on the Anglo-French army.

Originally, Emperor Xianfeng thought that the army that resisted the British and French forces in the Old Summer Palace was arranged by Seng Greenqin, but now when he saw that Monk Greenqin couldn't answer for a long time, he couldn't guess what was going on.

Emperor Xianfeng was furious and dismissed the monk Lingqin on the spot, and ordered him to lead the remnants of the army to defend Gyeonggi as a guilty person.

Emperor Xianfeng returned to the harem angrily, the harem was in chaos, and all the palaces were busy packing up their things and preparing to flee to the summer resort to temporarily avoid the British and French forces.

At this time, Concubine Chang, who had just escaped from the Old Summer Palace last night, hurriedly came to see Xianfeng and told him that when Lord Wen Fengwen persuaded her to leave the Old Summer Palace last night, she had said that an adult who had crossed over from the future predicted that the Old Summer Palace would be set on fire by the British and French forces, and Lord Wen persuaded her to flee to the summer resort to escape the war temporarily.

Concubine Chang didn't seem to believe Lord Wen's words, but for the sake of safety, she still returned to the Forbidden City overnight, and at this time, Concubine Chang saw that all the palaces were really packing up and preparing to go to the summer resort to avoid the military disaster, so she naturally remembered this incident and came to report to Xianfeng.

Xianfeng patiently listened to Concubine Chang after speaking, and asked if there were still many soldiers and horses stationed in the Middle Palace, and when he heard that there was an old Lord Wen Fengwen and several skilled eunuchs left in the Old Summer Palace at this moment, he couldn't help frowning, waved his hand to let Concubine Chang go back to the palace to pack her things, and prepared to flee to the summer resort with everyone for temporary refuge.

Can a Master Wen and a few skilled eunuchs inflict heavy losses on the French army?

And an adult who has traveled from the future?

Isn't that?

Xianfeng didn't hear Concubine Chang's words at all, if he knew that Wen Feng and those skilled eunuchs in the Old Summer Palace had already laid a minefield in the garden, which discouraged the French. If he could order Seng Lingqin to assemble a large army at this time, he would fight to the death against the Anglo-French forces. If......

There weren't so many ifs, and if they were all delivered, the world would have changed a long time ago.

In fact, history has quietly changed at this moment.

The Old Summer Palace, which was originally occupied by the French ** team on the evening of October 6, is still in the hands of the Chinese.

A few mines frightened the French army and bought Tang Dou a whole night.

This time is precious, Tang Dou crossed and moved back a large number of mines, and instructed Ren Liang to lead the seven eunuchs to bury the mines in various key roads leading to the Old Summer Palace.

Tang Dou wants to turn the Old Summer Palace into a prohibitive minefield, as for what to do with these mines after the war, in a word: whatever.

If these mines were completely detonated, they would have turned this beautiful royal garden into a state of devastation.

However, Tang Dou did not have a trace of guilt in his heart.

There was only one sentence in his mind, Wen Feng, Ren Liang and others: It is better to be broken than to be broken

Ren Liang and the others had already seen the power of the mines, and at this time, they were like chickens and blood, carrying up the mines and rushing to various key roads, without stopping for a moment to carry out the sapper operation.

Tang Dou naturally wouldn't waste this hard-won precious time, he immediately crossed over to the Zhengda Guangming Palace, and carried those mountains of treasures without stopping for a moment with Yang Deng.

When the sky was faintly bright, the mountains of treasures in the Zhengda Guangming Hall were finally carried away, and they looked empty.

Tang Dou brought back the most sumptuous banquet from Zhu Yuanzhang's palace, and beckoned Wen Feng, Ren Liang and others, who had also been busy all night, to come and eat.

One after another, Wen Feng, Ren Liang, and the seven eunuchs gathered from all over the hall of light.

Wen Feng and the others all saw the banquet in the middle of the main hall, but what they were most concerned about was the treasures that were originally piled up in the main hall, and at this moment they saw that those treasures had disappeared, and they couldn't help but have a happy smile on their faces, and Wen Feng took the lead in kneeling down to Tang Dou: "Old minister, thank you Lord for keeping these treasures." ”

Tang Dou stepped forward, helped Wen Feng and the others up from the ground one by one, patted the man's arm, shouted the man's name, and said that he had worked hard.

In the end, Tang Dou walked to Wen Feng's side again, looked at Wen Feng and said: "Lord Wen, I have arranged those treasures in a proper place, one day, they will still appear in front of the world with a bright face, and at the same time, the world will also know that these treasures are exchanged for your life, and the name of each of you will be engraved in the annals of history." ”

Wen Feng hurriedly said: "Lao Chen does not seek to be famous in history, as long as the things passed down by the ancestors can be protected and left to our future generations, Lao Chen's wish is fulfilled." ”

Tang Dou showed a smile on his face, this old guy, now he is finally willing to say the words of the ancestor, whether you do it intentionally or unintentionally, at least in your own heart, you have already admitted the fact that you are a descendant of Yan Huang.

Tang Dou took Wen Feng's veteran hand and said to Ren Liang and the others: "Everyone has worked hard all night, come, sit down and eat something together." ”

"The minions don't dare." Ren Liang and the others hurriedly knelt down.

In this world, how can there be a reason for adults to eat at the same table with eunuchs? Although they were already hungry by now, that didn't break the rules.

Tang Dou let go of Wen Feng, walked up to Ren Liang and helped him up, and said with a dark face: "Lord Ren, although you are a eunuch, you are also a person, a person who is no different from me. People are completely equal to each other, and there is no distinction between high and low. In my eyes, you are not only a person, but also a good man with strong bones. If you don't change your servility, the country is not strong, put aside your old sesame seeds and rotten grains, puff up your chest, and be an upright person. ”

Hearing Tang Dou's words, Ren Liang's tears flowed down. (To be continued.) )
